Chapter 42: Rainstorm stay

Zhang Yuxi, Dong Xianxian and Sun Ling'er's three daughters were also very worried about Bao Zheng, so they all poked their heads out and asked Bao Zheng to return to the carriage.

Bao Zheng waved his hand, and the rain followed Bao Zheng's wet hair, which charmed Bao Zheng's eyes. Bao Zheng wiped the rain on his face. The rain in the Song Dynasty was probably much cleaner than in the 21st century. Bao Zheng looked up at the distance, and the rain was filled with his eyes, and his eyes were only five feet apart. In the sound of the rain, he seemed to hear strange sounds. Black shadows swayed between the rain curtains behind him. Bao Zheng shouted at this time: "Bao Yi dodges, those people are people riding horses, be careful to be hit!"

Bao Yi heard Bao Zheng’s reminder and hurriedly flashed. A group of people riding horses, wearing hats and straw raincoats rushed past Bao Zheng. Dong Xianxian saw that the group of people almost hit Bao Zheng, and immediately said angrily: "It's really a group of calves who don't have eyes! If I hurt Bao Lang, I will definitely not spare you."

Dong Xianxian's words were quite loud, and he mixed his internal force into it, and it spread through the rain curtain into the ears of those people. The people who had originally rushed over suddenly stopped and turned around and came back.

Bao Yi murmured: "Miss Dong, I'm afraid I'll make a big fuss this time. If this group of people are unreasonable guys, I'm afraid they will fight with us."

Dong Xianxian's face darkened and said, "What are you afraid of them? If they dare to fight, I will definitely beat them to kneel down and beg for mercy."

The men in the straw raincoat came back on horseback. Just as they heard Dong Xianxian's words, a tall and thin elder among them got off the horse and stepped forward and said, "We had an urgent matter just now and then we collided with the heroine. I hope the heroine Hai Han will be. The heroine's voice transmission just now is really strong in her internal strength, and we brothers are very impressed."

The old man's words seemed a little blurred with the crackling sound of rain. He was a little indifferent to his breath. Bao Zheng felt that he seemed to be in a state of health.

Dong Xianxian didn't expect that they would come back to apologize. It seemed that they had really misunderstood them just now. Dong Xianxian was a little girl after all, and he rarely said anything about this kind of scene. Seeing that Dong Xianxian didn't know what to say, Bao Zheng had to hold his fist and said, "Since you all have urgent matters, just let it go. It's raining so hard now, everyone should hurry up. We also have to drive the carriage. The rain is too heavy."

The old man looked at Bao Zheng's carriage and couldn't help but speak, "Young Master obviously hasn't walked many far away. On this rainy day, the horses were so charmed by the rain that they would never go forward. The young master needed to use a straw rain to help the horses cover their eyes, so that they could work harder when walking."

After the old man finished speaking, he took out a special straw cloth cover from the horse's body. The cover was specially placed on the horse's face, but it just helped the horse block the rain in his eyes. After the old man helped Bao Zheng install the cover, he said goodbye to the horse and rushed forward.

Bao Zheng watched the people go away. At this time, Bao Yi had already pulled the carriage forward. With the old man's cover, the horse was indeed much more hardworking. In the end, Bao Yi and Bao Zheng didn't need to pull it down, and the horse could rush forward by himself. Two miles were completed in a blink of an eye. There was a small town ahead, and the town was called Qiaojia Ancient Town. After Bao Zheng entered the town, he hurriedly found the only inn in the town and planned to stay in.

When the waiter saw Bao Zheng and others coming, he quickly brought his hat and brought his horse and umbrella. Bao Zheng and the other four walked into the inn. At this time, there were a lot of people sitting in the inn, all passing merchants, and they were just catching up with the heavy rain. As soon as Bao Zheng and the other four stepped into the inn, they attracted everyone's attention. Zhang Yuxi, Dong Xianxian and Sun Ling'er's three daughters were so eye-catching that some of them were still watching. Bao Zheng had to hum and make the people come back to their senses. Then he walked to the counter and asked, "Shopkeeper, can you go to the room? We are going to stay in the hotel today."

The shopkeeper was fat and big-eared. When he heard Bao Zheng wanted to stay in the hotel, he immediately greeted him with a smile and said, "Celebrity, it's raining today, there are not many guest rooms, but there is still one in the room. I wonder if the young master wants it?"

The shopkeeper looked at Bao Zheng and the other two with his eyes, feeling a little embarrassed. Bao Zheng was two men and three women, and when he saw that Bao Yi was dressed as a servant, there was only one room left, so it was probably not enough.

Bao Zheng frowned and said, "It's better to have one room than nothing."

After Bao Zheng paid the money, he took Zhang Yuxi and Dong Xianxian upstairs and found the room he said to the shopkeeper. The three girls were all dressed in the room, but it was fine. Bao Zheng and Bao Yi changed the clothes they had in the room first, and then gave the room to the three girls.

Dong Xianxian couldn't help but ask with concern: "Baolang, where do you live today?"

Bao Zheng said: "Bao Yi and I will go downstairs to have a night of tea today. I think the rain will stop tomorrow."

Although Dong Xianxian was a little worried, he was afraid that this was the only way. Bao Zheng and Bao Yi stopped being too busy and went downstairs, found an empty table and sat down. Bao Zheng called the waiter over, ordered a few side dishes, ordered a large pot of tea, and asked the waiter to deliver food to Dong Xianxian and Zhang Yuxi upstairs. As women, they were inconvenient to have dinner with a group of big men in the lobby.

Bao Zheng and Bao Yi were drinking tea leisurely on the table. It was only half afternoon, and it was still early before nightfall. Bao Zheng had time. Listening to the passing merchants in the lobby, Haitian and Wudi, talking about all kinds of bizarre experiences, Bao Zheng couldn't help but prick up his ears curiously.

There was a burly man in the middle of the lobby, but he was the loudest. He could only hear him say: "The mice in Tuoluo Mountain in the west of the town are really kids. I heard that I went to Lujiazhuang not long ago and kidnapped the lady from Lujiazhuang."

Many people immediately shouted and cheered, and a thin man said, "The people in Lujiazhuang used to bully people with power. They thought the court had supported Liu Chenggui, so they did whatever they wanted. This time they were defeated in front of the Rat Hero. I was afraid that the lady would lose money and lost money, hahaha!" The thin man laughed as he said, his face full of lewdness, as if he was the one who grabbed the lady of the Lu family.

As soon as the skinny man finished his words, everyone immediately agreed. Bao Zheng listened to their conversation and knew that someone here was suppressing the gentry Lujiazhuang with the slogan of robbing the rich and helping the poor. He just didn't know if the Lujiazhuang was really as vicious as they said.

Just as the conversation was in full swing in the lobby, a person slapped the table heavily in the corner. A loud "bang" made everyone stop talking and look at the corner.

There were six people sitting in the corner at this time, and a big man was slamming the table. He was glaring, his bearded, and he looked like a hero. An old man next to him grabbed the big man and forced him back to the stool.

Bao Zheng glanced at the old man, and it was the old man who was wearing a straw raincoat for Bao Zheng's horse. Bao Zheng had a little affection for these people, but when he saw the old man calm down, he said, "Just just now, my brother drank a few more drinks, and he smashed the table with a drunkenness. You can continue to have fun, don't let him ruin your elegant pleasure."
